Everything we do is RF and have had no problems in the last 7 years with - Indium NC-SMQ92J, Sn63 Pb 37, 90.25% Metal, -325+500 mesh. Stencils are always 0.005" thick. However I will qualify that by adding we are an OEM and each new product may requi

Sometimes solder balling is related to oxidized paste or paste that has sat on the pcb too long before reflow. Mostly it is related to process, sorry... Too slow or too fast of a reflow ramp rate. Heating up an assembly too quickly will not allow the

yes this paste is a pain in the paste.... there are very few reasons for solderballs, component to pad ratio and placement.... solder paste control, using a mixer, not hand mixing, checking viscosity and temp..... or simply and bad profile and your

We also use Indium NC-SMQ92J. We do the same as mentioned per Russ. We reduce apertures mostly on QFP's with pitch of 25 mil or less (we place down to 15 mil QFP). All other apertures we keep 1:1. We print resnet 0805 size with no problems. You might

Hi Sarag, We share Sara's described experience with cleaning No-Clean/Low Residue flux residues. We can add that of the Low Residue residues, Indium SMQ92J is one of the more challenging flux residues to clean. That said, we have had repeated succ

Over all time will be dictated by your conveyor speed. Your conveyor speed will be dictated by your products time above liquidous. Time above liquidous is dictated by the manufacturers specification. Time and temp before reflow will have to be ach

Some amount of voiding was always seen on sites where solder paste is printed. These voids are much smaller. However the site where a flip chip is flux dipped has never had problems with voiding. Macro voids (and huge ones at that)across the board s

DPAK align on the tab with leaded solders. They don't align much with unleaded solders, but we know that your Indium NC-SMQ 92J is leaded. So, there may be too much paste on the heat sink tab causing the component to float [or wim] during reflow. If

We place a QFP 256 leads 20 mil pitch, had a lot of troubles with shifted components and solderability issues. solderability is not a problem anymore; we solved with a ramp-to-spike profile with .9�C/s 'til 183� then spike to about 118�C, TAL ~60s. W

Hi there. We have had troubles with pogo contamination on ICT fixtures causing false failures (Pictures attached). Currently we're spending about 10k on pogo replacement but still having problems. I recomended to clean pogos with a defluxer but Test
